Evening update from CAL FIRE: The fire is 1,960 acres & 14% contained.
Situation Summary
With hard work and improved weather conditions crews were able to increase the percentage of containment, bringing that number to 14 percent, while also holding the fire to the existing boundary.
The fire continues to burn in steep, rugged terrain, burning out the dry and dead fuels.
Crews are actively engaged in building containment lines around the fire, reinforcing lines, and mop-up.
Cooler weather is expected this week which will aid firefighting efforts.
